Perini Navi signs two new contracts

Published: Monday, 18 July 2011

The Perini Navi Group has launched a new series of 60 metre sailing yachts and has
already signed two sales contracts for a total value of more than 70 million
Euro. The two yachts – a ketch
and a sloop – will be delivered in 2013 and 2014 respectively. The new line of
60 metre sailing yachts –
created and designed by the Perini Navi
Group – represents the natural evolution of the successful 56 metre
series that has already seen ten yachts launched.

The Perini Navi Group closed the 2010 fiscal year with an order
portfolio of 126 million Euro, while by June 2011, thanks to the sales of these
two new yachts, the volume is currently of 140 million spread over seven yachts.
This represents a year-on-year growth of 10.6% in value of production from
2009, according to the firm.

In the year 2010, Perini
Navi launched four yachts – three sailing yachts and one motor yacht. These
were the 56-metre ketches Panthalassa and
Melek, the 45-metre sloop Fivea, and Exuma, the revolutionary 50-metre Picchiotti from the Vitruvius®
series motor yacht, the first motor
yacht produced by the Perini Navi Group. In August 2011, the second Picchiotti motor yacht of the Vitruvius® series, a 55 metre, will
be delivered.
